Time To Heal (Harlequin Heartwarming) - Plot & Excerpts
Through the door, which Michael had not quite pushed shut, came the sounds of office routine: a ringing phone, raised voices, footsteps, a sharp clatter as somebody dropped something. None of it made any impression on Jake. It was simply background accompaniment as he took in Michael’s words. “How could I be your father, Michael? I don’t know you. I’ve never seen you before in my life.” “I know that, sir.” He shook his head and suddenly looked as young as his years. “I never knew anything about any of this until Mama Dee died. There was this chest in her bedroom and it had a bunch of old stuff in it. One thing was a metal box with my birth certificate.” As he spoke, he leaned down and ripped at a zipper in the knapsack. To Jake, the harsh sound was like the scrape of nails on a blackboard. He tried to collect himself as Michael rummaged through the articles in the opened pouch. There was no order in the way he had packed his belongings, Jake thought vaguely. Rachel would never allow Scotty to pack like that.
